The incredible 2010 Block 1 comes from estate vineyards and is a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that spent 28 months in French oak. Massively concentrated, with a slightly backwards, brooding profile, it offers up an ultra-rich, meaty bouquet of smoked black currants, sage brush, mint, dry-aged beef and brown spice that gives way to a full-bodied, muscular 2010 that has a serious amount of fruit and texture that’s cut by juicy, lively acidity and ripe tannin. Disjointed right on opening, it improved beautifully over the evening (and consecutive days) and should be decanted for an hour or more if drinking anytime soon. It’s a unique, thrilling effort that will benefit from short-term cellaring and drink well for 15-20 years. Drink 2016-2030. Coming all from the estate Sheridan Vineyard and made by owner/winemaker Scott Greer, these wines are big, full-throttle efforts that don’t hold back on ripeness or oak, yet manage to hold everything together with brilliant purity of fruit, clean acidity and rock solid underlying structure. While Scott’s 2010s are all formidably tannic and slightly backwards, his 2011s are more approachable and supple across the board; in addition, he pulled back on the toast level on all of the barrels in 2011 to account for the lighter concentration level of the vintage. All of the wines are beautifully made and highly recommended. Tel. (425) 401-0167; www.sheridanvineyard.com
